Lets be honest, you don't add two more VR ranks if you are planning on removing it completely, they may change the name or adjust things but they will never remove them...

Why they are saying "its something long terms" while adding two more ranks ....

Yeah I call BS.

    They planned to only if Champ system made a good replacement, it doesn't. The champ system needs work but could never reasonably replace levels.

    Just watch the Twitch video. Eric Wrobel went into quite a bit of detail as to why veteran ranks can't be removed just yet. They are ingrained into ESO in such a way that they cannot be removed until an entirely new system is created to replace it.

    It sounds like he was talking about some alien computer that they must hack first and have no idea where it came from.

    If there was a way to upgrade all pf our hard earned gear to the new vr level, i wouldnt be as pissed.

    Whats the point of grinding for a month for masters weps when their useless within a few months.

    Destiny tried this, and it failed, horribly.

    They realised theit mistake though and implimented an upgrade system.

    Zos needs to follow suit

    When the game went B2P I knew vets where here to stay. I mean its the best way to make money in the crown store add 2 vet levels every few months with some content you will need to have to get said levels and boom money maker....

    They clearly had no intention of removing VR. If so, it would have been done before console release. Unfortunately this company refuses to listen to the majority of its player base.

    This has always been obvious to anyone who took five minutes to think about how many aspects of the game are tied to vet ranks. That's why I thought they'd never be removed. But it isn't anything new, ZOS must have realized it months ago when they first conceptualized vet rank removal. They should have explained it to us and walked us through the process instead of suddenly dropping two new vet ranks nobody wants with another "but we have a plan, Soon(tm)!"

    They are getting removed it's just gonna take them a while. The reasons is probably because they have to remake the entire leveling content from the ground up.

    It's funny how players that don't like something that changed consider themselves to be the majority of the player base....

    I take my previous comment back - It's pretty obvious now they are cutting corners and taking shortcuts. From now one everything they say is vaporware to me until I see definitive proof of change.
